For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women’s suits of 2024!
We haven’t had a truly unusual suit for a while now, so I present: the Seragyi “Liz” suiting over at Wolf & Badger. There are a number of details you don’t see on many suits, from the asymmetrical neckline, the slightly puffed sleeves, and the pleated/peplum detail at the bottom half of the jacket.
The suiting is also 97% extra fine merino wool, which is also pretty rare these days — the brand describes it thus:
Expertly crafted from wrinkle-resistant, anti-odor Extra Fine Italian Merino wool . . . . Sourced from a century-old, Responsible Wool Standard certified mill, our Merino wool offers bi-stretch comfort, allowing freedom of movement in all directions.
Nice! The site offers matching A-line skirts, “pyramid cut” pants, and for some colors, a more traditional collarless blazer. (I’m not familiar with the term “pyramid cut,” but I will note that the pants have a hem that looks similar to a tulip hem — the jacket also says it has a pyramid cut, perhaps again because of the slit in the cuffs.)
It’s clear from the styling on the website that there are, perhaps, fit issues — but for the marked down prices I’d say you can afford to take it to the tailor. (Here’s our guide to suiting alterations.) Prices were in the $400s for each piece, but now come down to $166-$198; the suit is available in three colors in sizes 2-14.
